Not completely a hijack, but does anyone remember the story about the Gullwing with zero miles?

Guy ordered every part from the factory, and then piled them up in his garage until he got them all.

Never personally got to put them together, but it was put together by a big-time restorer.

Story was in the "Star" about 10-15 years ago.

....Which reminds me of Johnny Cash’s classic song, “One Piece at a Time.” The song is about an auto factory worker who spends years stealing car parts from the factory to build his own car. When he finally has all the parts and puts the car together, he finds that the parts he’s taken from different makes and models over several years do not fit together properly....

Now this is officially a hijack. I can go on with this dialogue with myself for hours. Stop me please.
